Story so far....New heart for my pc a cpl weeks ago. Everything goes swimmingly. Yesterday morning, go to turn pc on and nothing. No blip of leds or fans, nothing. Pull the side off, no loose wires. pull the power switch wire off and try shorting the terminals. Still nothing. So at this stage i'm thinking PSU let the magic smoke out. Decide to pull the main 24 pin connector off and short pins 4 and 7 to see if owt happens. PSU blips, leds flash and fans all twitch. Plug connector back into mobo and pc boots straight up no problem(without touching button again). Check all the voltages in windows, everything completely within spec whether loaded or idle. Check the power button from windows(set to hibernate) and that's fine. Works fine when i turn pc back on 2 mins later. Same result later in day when i try turning off for a cpl mins. Turn it off last night when i go to bed and guess what happens first thing this morning? Same rigmorole with having to short psu pins to boot pc. I left the pc turned off this afternoon when i finished my tea break and when i tried turning on this eve, nothing again. So it seems like the pc needs to be off for a while before this happens.
I have a sneaking suspicion what the problem is but i just want to get some other opinions first.
Thanks in advance
